EBSCO Integrated Search (EHIS) update

For the benefit of amnesiacs and new readers, EBSCOHost Integrated Search (EHIS) is replacing WebFeat ('Search All Resources' on the library home page)as our federated search software and our off-campus access to electronic resources platform. WebFeat is still available as we wait for all our databases to be made available on EHIS.

We are making good progress however, with the number of databases available to be searched (and therefore available off-campus) on EHIS Now available are:
ft.com
WARC
Lexis Nexis Legal (Butterworths All England Law Reports)

If you're interested in using EHIS, you can click here and login with your student number and date of birth. Even if you can't login to WebFeat, you almost certainly should be able to login to EHIS and if your date of birth doesn't work, then login with your student number as both username and password. Currently databases available on EHIS are:

Academic Search Complete
All England Law Reports (Lexis-Nexis Legal)
